Hanky Panky

A personal – and extremely important – mantra I’ve tried to follow through my life is: Never run out of underwear or socks. Because I only do laundry about once a month, sometimes even longer, this has led to a ridiculous amount of socks and underwear. Except, I just keep buying and buying, never purging through the outdated or worn-out ones. Which, in turn, has just allowed me to go... Read more

Daily Tweet Babble: My Weekend

FRIDAY 5:31 the term “stage five clinger” makes me laugh. # 5:49 Taking the bus out to Redmond. Not as bad as I thought it’d be. # 7:17 since when is bowling $30?! # 7:53 my BF is running around with a duck hat on and a kazoo. Don’t ask. # 10:08 a fire, an US Weekly and “Love Actually” = a great night in. # SATURDAY 11:13 wondering what to do with myself. # 5:31... Read more

Take one friend down, pass her around the bride circle

Take one friend down, pass her around the bride circle Back in July, I wrote about the engagement of one of my nearest and dearest friends, a Dolphin Sister. (Regular readers might remember it as the post I was ridiculed and shamed for using “OG Gangsta” incorrectly. Oh the agony. Oh the defeat.) Flash forward four months and the lovely couple have now set a date for (ACK!) five months away in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Therefore, a few of the... Read more

This is why I call my boyfriend a Fat Kid

This is why I call my boyfriend a Fat Kid The above is what’s currently in his freezer. Have you ever seen a more ridiculously disgusting display of junk food? In case you can’t make it out through the crappy, pixilated camera pic, that’s 1 Costco-size box of Eggos, 1 bag of “chicken fries,” (seriously?!), 1 bag of honey bbq chicken wings, 1 Tony’s pizza, 1 box of bacon wrapped scallops and 1 box of Jimmy Dean...

On the agenda for this weekend

A quiet night tonight of bowling with my boyfriend after my busy week. Oh don’t you worry, I still plan to knock a couple brewskies back at the ole alley. Happy hour and wedding dress shopping with my Dolphin Sisters tomorrow. Yikes. This is really fun, but also super weird to me that one of my Dolphins is getting married. I’ll probably get all weird, teary and soggy on her and say,... Read more

Gimme, gimme, gimme – Gimme some WINE and CHEESE

I had a ridiculously fun night last night. An extravagant, Balinese Seattle socialite friend of mine, whom I’ll call W, hosted a wine and dinner party at his house in Maple Leaf, and I dragged my Hussy Bestie Amanda there with me. W knows nearly everyone in Seattle, I believe, and he’s always trying to fix his single, straight friends up, so I thought I’d help a sistah out. When we pulled up to the... Read more

Chicken Noodle Soup of the Eastern kind

Chicken Noodle Soup of the Eastern kind I’m not much of a cook. Occasionally I’ll dabble with recipes, but most of the time I’m stuck in my no-time, starving-when-I-get-home, need-to-make-something-healthy-and-quick ways. Therefore, I eat a lot of Trader Joe’s minute brown rice, stir fry veggies and some sort of curry or masala sauce. For at least the past six months, Indian food has been my mainstay. (Thankfully, I’m coupled. I... Read more

How pleasant. # 8:14 catching the bus on a FRIDAY night to meet Amanda and a friend at The Matador. I’m so bus savvy now. # 10:08 Bartender, another glass of wine... Read more

My glitter-loving self grows up

My glitter-loving self grows up Yesterday I decided to drag my lazy wine-headached butt out of bed and head to The Glitter Sale with my roommate. Since both of us live car-less in the city, it took us nearly an hour to bus to The Goodwill in South Seattle. We arrived to a line, snaking around the building. A middle-aged lady with worn Reeboks, tomato lipstick, and a diamond crown and earrings soon came walking down the line with a box of... Read more

20-Something gets her haircut: Dubliner Man Crush returns

Life is weird. It’s just plain weird. Friday night I met up with my bestie, Amanda, and a mutual girl friend we had when we lived together in Fremont. The two of us haven’t seen her since that time approximately four years ago, so it was a bit of an exciting girl reunion. After getting my haircut, I bused my way to Ballard to meet up with them at The Matador, which was insanely crowded—standing room... Read more
